This month’s building reminds us of the mixed-use nature of Capitol Hill’s neighborhoods, especially on the blocks west of 200 West. This area was part of Salt Lake City’s original Plat ‘A’, and consists of large ten-acre blocks separated by 132 foot wide streets. This neighborhood has always been an area of diverse uses, including houses, multi-family dwellings, commercial buildings, and small and large scale industrial uses. In the 1870 and 1880s, early farms that characterized this neighborhood were subdivided and sold to developers. The proximity of the area to the Denver and Rio Grande Railroad line quickly attracted industrial uses, such as the Morrison-Merrill Lumber Company and Salt Lake Hardware buildings on 400 West, just north of North Temple.Read more here!
